The Dangers Of immigration.

The announcement that the ocean
steamers carrying immigrants to this
country are overburdehed with appli-
cations for passage, and that hun.
dreds are encamped in Queensto wn
awaiting accommodations, shows that
the tide of immigration which has
been steadily falling for four years
past is again on the rise. In 1882
immigration reached its food
1892 persons having been added
in that year to our population in this
way. The following year the num-
ber fell to 603,322, and 1888 saw a
further decrease to 5l8,592. The
year 1885 sliced off another large
large fraction, leaving the number at
395, ,346; this was only slightly di-
minished in 1886, 392, SS7 having i'm
migrated in that year. But the re-
turn of business prosperity promises,
as it always has done, to put the fig
ures again on the ascending scale,
and add, perhaps, a polyglot host of
100000 persons to this country dur
ing 1887.
The growth Of Socialism and Com
munism within the past few years
has drawn serious attention to the
question whether this country can
safely permit any longer the indis-
criminate immigration which nos
gone on during the past thirty years.
The ceasas of 1880 showed that there
were 9,679,943 people of foreign birth
in this country and that their children
numbered S.3l9,053. The total for
eign immigration since since 1880
aggregates 1884, 262, 80 that, allow

A Curiosity Of Commerce.

Along the northeast coast of Africa,
south of Cape Guardafui, there are no
towns worth mentioning for some
hundreds of miles. The Somali ma
tives who live along the coast have
had scarcely any dealings with white
traders. A little while ago smart
firm in Alden made up their minds to
that by maintaining regular commun-
icatioDs with this coast they would
be able to build up good trade.
They therefore bought little steam
vessel and sent their agents along the
coast to tell the natives that at a GER
tain time, if they would look out on
the sea, they would see a steamer
coming, laden with beautiful goods,
to give them in exchange for hides,
palm oil and the other products of the
Somali region.
The little vessel has now made
several trips. and the experiment has
proved a great success. Knowing
that they may expect the steamer at
the date fixed, the natives for many
miles in the interior flock to the shore
at different points where the vessel
stops. A large crowd well burdened
with objects of exchange await the
steamer, which anchors off the coast
while trading boats put ashore, and
lively market is soon in progress
where O few hours before nothing
could be seen but the wide stretch of
sands that border this coast.-C Chica-

Something New About Eggs.

'If | owned all the hens in this
country" said the marketman, as he
counted out dozen eggs and put
them in q customers basket, land
had place to pasture them, | would
ask just ten years in business and I'd
be the boss millionaire"
"How's that?"
"How's that. May be you don't
know, young man, that over 26,000,-
600 cackles each day, announcing the
birth of the same number OF eggs,
kept the farmer boys busy last year
gathering in the efforts OF sc, 900, 900
hens? But they did. Well, those
efforts for 3G5 days resulted in 9,600,-
900, 900 separate and distinct eggs or
500, 900, 900 dozen. as near as | can
calculate. Now, it took just 750,-
600, 600 dozens of those eggs to sup
ply the demand for Tom and ferries,
puddings, hard and soft boiled eggs,
egguog and ham aud eggs at that =.

1886. was about the average price
Thirty cents dozen for 720,000,000
dozen climbs up to the comfortable
little purse of 1925, 100000. There's
nothing mean about me, and if had
the handling of those offerings of the
nations hens I'd be satisfied with
profit of two cents on dozen.
Last year must have been q good
one for people visiting in the coun.
try, for folks broiled, fricasseed and
roasted something like six hundred
million chickens, young and old
That used up the little balance of
fifty million eozen eggs. That fifty
million dozen were turned into chick
ems that gobbled up $500, 100000 of
the hard earned coin in this realm,
ciphering the thing down close, at
so cents chicken. l don't deal in
poultry, but from the size of the dia-
mond pins of the ones that do, |
don't hesitate minute to say that
there can't he less than FIVE cents
profit on every chicken they SELL
Last year New York took 25,000.0 900
dozen OF eggs to satisfy her, and she
paid $9,000,000 to get them Now,
New York State only keeps hens
enough to lay about 5000, 600 dozen,
and so, of course, we have to go
knocking around all over the country
and part Of Canada to keep up with
the cry for eggs 1t would take all
the eggs that New York, New Jer.
sey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts,
hens are responsible for to supply
New York city with all the eggs it
wants. The 100000 used last
year, il laid in single line, one after

tween them, would reach from Boston

! ing for deaths, probably one in every
eight of the present population is Of
foreign birth. Statistics show tina.
/ from this class comes IS per cent OF
Of the criminals, about the same pro.
portion of 'paupers sand probably SO
percent Of the saloon keepers. But
even these are not the worst results
to the nation from indiScriminate in
migration. The Anarchists, and So
cialists whose proceedings have
threatened the stability Of social order
especially in the Western cities, are
made up almost wholly of meu of
foreign birth. 1t was the German
Socialists who conceived aud carried
out the Haymarket plot in Chicago,
and the Milwaukee rioters were al.
most to man Polish Anarchists.
But along with this increase in the
criminal, pauper and commnnistic
element is another evil, and one in-
separable from it. 1t is the alarming
growth Of the illiterate class. The
state census OF Massachusetts, taken
in 1885 is the latest and most sig
nihcant authority on the subject. IL
shows that in that state there are
III ,5I2 persons ever 10 years of age
who cannot read and write For
nearly all this illteracy the inllnx OF
foreigners into the seaport AID maa-
ufacturing towns is responsible
Fall River alone has 1892 persons
unable to read and write. la Low
ell and Adams the illiterates number
one in ten; in Blackstone, Douglas
and Webster, Que in eight; in Holy
oke and Spencer, one in seven A
special examination made in some of
tie mills discovered the feet that from
oneifth to one-third of the employ
ees between the ages of IA aud l6
are totally iliterate. The fishing
towns present an exhibit equally
startling and Giscouraging, growing
out of the presence of large numbers
of Italian and Portuguese fishermen
That this great mass Of illiteracy is
almost wholly due to foreign immi-
grafton is shown by tho fact that less
than l per cent of the illiterates were
born in Massachusetts.
This exhibit in state which pos
sesses school system as nearly per-
feet as Massachusetts does may well
cause apprehension as to the posi-
bility of dealing with the promiscu-
Gus immigration, the tide of which
has again begun to roll upon our
shores in increasing volume. 1t
would be unfair to class oil immi-
grants as ignorant or even q majority
of them, and the question is how they
can be sieVed and screened and the
worthy ones admitted while the Grim.

returned to the countries which glad
ly spewed them out. Some method
of dealing with this subject will have
to be found and as the states them.

question rests with Congress. That

the importance of the matter is shown
by the growing strength Of what is

MURDER IN OHIO.
DR.. Northup, Of Haverhill, Bru-
tally Killed by Whisky
Men,"

PORTSMOUTH, O., April 2S.-At
Haverhill, small town in the East
ern part of Sciota County, on the
Ohio River. DR.. w. T. Northup, Q
prominent physician and vice-presi.
dent of the Sciots County Medical
Society, was brutally murdered yes
terday afternoon by Thomas Mccoy,
saloon keeper, and his brother AL.
fred, the postmaster of Haverhill,
aided by Pierson aud James Mccoy,
sons of Alfred, and aged 20 and 15
respectively.
The McCoys are whisky Demo.
Gratis snd DR.. Northup was Prohi-
bitionist Republican. The McCoys
had always run the township elec.
tons to suit themselves till Northup's
arrival five years ago. lie at once
changed things, and was working
hard to introduce local option. This
usurpation of what the McCoys con-
sidered their political rights, followed
by state of affairs that threatened to
ruin their business, incurred their
otter hostility.
THE MURDERERs LAY IN WAIT.
Yesterday afternoon the four Nc.

neglected the precaution to arm him.
self, measure which the Doctor had
adopted some time ago in Difference
to his friends wishes who knew of
tie McCoys' enmity, lay in wait for
him. Just as DR.. Northup reached
point in the street opposite the post
Office, Fred Mccoy ran out and
headed him off, from reaching his
Office, the others meanwhile opening
fire with shotguns upon the Doctor
from the house of Thomas Mccoy.
The Doctor attempted to retreat to
his office, but was intercepted by AL
fred.
Drawing his pocket-knife the Doc
tor stabbed the Postmaster in the
side cutting him badly. Young
Pierson Mccoy fearing their victim
would escape, although he had been
fred at eight times, three loads tax
ing effect, ran from the house and up
to the doctor, and placing his gun al,
most against his breast, fred both
barrels, the loads passing entirely
through the poor mans body and
tearing out his heart.
A WITNESS TO THE TRAGEDY.
W. A. Vandervist, of Grannan's
Detective Agency of Cincinnati, who
happened to be in the village visit-
ing, was q witness of the tragedy,
but was too far of to prevent it. He
succeeded in srresting Alfred Mccoy,
who was lying on the ground
bleeding from Northup's knife
thrust, put him in jail and at once
started in pursuit of the three others.
He captured them late last night at
point several miles down the river.
They are now safe in Jail. There is
tremendous excitement over the
bloody affair and lynching is not
unlikely.
Dr. Northup was 35 years of age,
had large practice and many per-
sonal friends. He came from Gallia
County five years ago. He was en-
gagged to be married to Miss Ella
Oakes. daughter of Joshua Oakes, a
wealthy farmer.
Alfred Mccoy is badly wounded.
He is man 81 years of age. His
brother, Thomas, is 35. Alfred was
recently appointed postmaster of
Hayerhill.
